fashion week faves: moody blues



The end of Fashion Week is nigh and I feel like I haven't perused enough collections yet!

Which designers were your faves?

Here are some highlights in different shades of blue.


Milly




Marchesa (What a beautiful gown.)






Nahm




Marc By Marc (I usually love Marc Jacobs but his collection was a bit of a miss for me this year... the looks were too heavy; I much preferred this more wearable and fresh Marc By Marc line.)






Nanette Lepore (There were so many sumptuous details on display.)




Mara Hoffman






Norma Kamali








Lyn Devon





Oscar de la Renta (I thought there were many gorgeous pieces in this collection.  I also loved the hairstyling and the headbands.)











Jeremy Scott (this collection was very Rainbow Brite meets anime; definitely one of the more bolder designers from this week!)




Prabal Gurung (I always look forward to what he does next!)





Love this dress.







ICB




Preen







Farah Angsana (pretty dress, shape, color & fabric)






Proenza Shouler




Love this design:





DVF (I feel like her designs are always so flattering)




I love this bright teal!





Richard Chai Love







Bibhu Mohapatra





Tory Burch









Barbra Tfank (so good for Michelle Obama who wore one of her dresses at the last State of the Union)






Vivienne Tam






Anna Sui







J. Crew (super cute, right?)








Rachel Roy





Edun






Kelly Wearstler (I loved her collection... very fun!)







10 Crosby Derek Lam

  1. DVF is the queen of wearability for all shapes and sizes. I knew J. Crew wasn't playing when they called Manolo Blahnik to do the shoes. I haven't seen many collections either, but I appreciated the endless glamour at Alice + Olivia and Rachel Zoe was surprisingly good as well. I suppose this Fall will be all about more accessible designers. Take that 1%!
